Séamus Power faces a scrap to retain his full PGA Tour card this week. The Waterford man plays the RSM Classic at Sea Island in Georgia, the season finale, needing to jump 29 places in the FedExCup Fall standings to keep full tour status.

Power is currently 129th in the rankings with the top 100 earning their full cards. Those outside the top 100 but inside the top 150 only receive conditional status, meaning they will have limited access to full-field events. In previous years, it had been the top 125 who received full cards but that has been reduced for 2026. Karl Vilips, the Australian who won the Puerto Rico Open this year, is at 100 in the rankings.
